one hundred illegal votes in four elections
held in Baltimore city within that period
of time, at neither of which were less than
fifty thousand votes polled, shows the utter
untruthfulness Of the shameless and SLAM
derous charges Of unparalleled fraud in cleo
items in that city. Nor dses the conviction
as guilty of official misconduct of five judges
and two clerks Of election out Of eighteen
hundred judges and clerks Of election who
have acted as such within that period of
time in that city excuse, much less justify,
such unqualified charges. The Democratic
party will march again TO deserved victory
in the coming campaign, and will see to It
that the sanctity Of elections, primary and
official, shall be guarded and protected by
all those safeguards of stringent registration
and election laws which the people and the
rights of the people may demand And
that all Democrats who honestly believe
that elections heretofore held in Baltimore
city have not been fair and free and truth
full may be entirely satisfied with the con-
duct of the coming primaries therein for
State nominations, this committee, in the
exercise of its paramount political right,
deem it its duty to resolve as follows:
First. That the nominating convention be
held in Baltimore ON July 9th, 1887.
Second. That the voters of the counties Of
the State are requested TO send delegates
equal to their legislative representation to
the State Convention.
The third, fourth and fifth resolutions ar.
range the program for the city primaries.
Sixth. That the representatives from each
county name the place and hours of voting
in their respective counties for State pur-
poses, select the persons to call the said pri-
maries and 10 conduct them, and give two
weeks notice of the same, except in coun-
ties where the appsintive power rests in To-
cal committees. Each candidate is allowed
two representa- YES in the polling room, and
can find redress for his grievances in the
Board Of Supervisors of primary elections,
appointed by the State Central Committee.
Seventh. Henry d. Fernandis, Henry
Page, James Bond, Harry A. Schultz, f. M.
Cox, II. w. Talbot and James A. l.. Nc
Clure are appointed the Board Of Supervisors.
| Their office is in Baltimore. They act for
the present year and appoint all judges and
clerks Of primary elections for State pur-
poses, with the exception in the 9th resolu
ton.
Eighth. That a judicial convention be
held at Bclair, 4th Of August, 1887, to NOM
mate a candidate in the third circuit.

ONE thousand head Of store cattle
recently passed into the states from
the Province Of Quebec. Those who
think that Commercial Union would
not be paying thing for the cattle
men will be interested to know that
unrestricted reciprocity with the
United States would have made chat
one consignment worth 5000 more
than it really was to the eastern
township farmers, who shipped them.
The fact that Canadian cattlemen are
forced to pay this immense duty in
order to get market for their cattle
shows that with Commercial Uni on,
their market would be largely inccrsas.
cd, and that on all shipments made,a
very big item, viz: the duty, would
be retain ed IN the pockets of the ship
pers. The same thing applies with
equal force on the western ranges.
Our cattle cannot be proftably ship
ped TO England except when the Esg-
lish market is at it's highest. The
fact that eastern stockmen find II nec.
essary TO pay the daty aud ship to the
states shows that there are more cat
tie down there than the home demand
calls for, so we cannot expect TO fad
market there. What, therefore. are
we going to do with the thousands Of
steers that some Of our stock men say
they will In the near future have to
ship? At Chicago there is . market
for all we can produce, and 1t Is to that
market that we must look. The price
obtained for cattle there will be the
same, duty or no duty. Which do the
cattle men prefer? To pay q high du-
ty or to keep the money in their pock-
es7 Canada is now charging duty
on English goods. II IL more than
possible that England will return to
the duty against Canada. All things
considered, Commercial Union is the
thing that Canadian ranchmen want
aud should agitate r.-Mssleod Ga

DO YOU KNOW SAM.

Upwards Of thirty years ngo there
were Know. Nothings In the land.
The real old native Uncle Sam was
the idol they worshiped. German
and Irish brogue threw them into
spasms. 1.-THE foreigner must Co."
was their war cry. do you know
Sam?" was their password. They ex-
pended o great deal Of eloquence, q
great deal of time, and they accom-
plished nothing Whatever.
The new KNOWN othings are now
gathering In conclave in Washington.
They arc otherwise called the Demo.
cratic majority In Congress. But the
old name hts them better. They think
that the tariff and the internal reve.
uae ought to he fixed somehow. Some
want Q horizontal reduction all along
the line. Some want the tariff on
only . few things reduced. The Lou
isiana folks want sugar let alone and
wool cut down. The Ohio folks wan
wool let alone and sugar put on the
free list. The Kentucky distillers
want the tax on whiskey maintained
and tobacco made free. The Virginia
tobacco manufacturers want that re-
versed.
And yet out Of the hurly burly some
scheme might be devised were 1t not
for one spectre. When two tariff re-
form Democrats meet they shudder
and exclaim "Do you know Sam?"
''Sam" Is Sam Randall. He is . ter
ror. He has some twenty or thirty
votes ut his back. The Democratic
majority In the house 10 thirteen.
Sam Is . high protectionist. He has
before this knocked tariff reduction
higher than Gilderoy's kite. He ia
calmly preparing his club for use this
winter. The Democrats would like
him to get out Of the way. But he
won't bulge. They would like him
to yield to the caucus. But he won't
yield. He is the twelfth juror, who
finds the other eleven very obstinate.
Sam lie fact-a very positive. pug
nacious. aggressive fact. Democratic
agreement on tariff reform and sur.
plus reduction is tancy-an exceed
ingly ETHEREAL fancy. Fact and fancy
don't fit.
When an irresistible force IN eets an
immovable body-what happens. -
